Check out this great article in the UK's The Guardian about Kiki Peppard's epic battle against maternal profiling here in Pennsylvania. There is so much to be done and the bills that would protect mothers from job discrimination (HB and SB 280) in this state are still stuck in Committee. These bills need to move and MomsRising is leading the way to make that happen.

So very clever

Thanks Guy Kawasaki for this post:

This is the cleverest idea I've seen in years (and Apple had nothing to do with it as far as I know): PlayPumps. Kids play on a merry-go-round and pump water for villages at the same time. Girls benefit in particular because they are usually the ones fetching water. How cool is that?!
